Chabad, also known as Chabad Lubavitch, is a sect of Hasidic Orthodox Judaism. Chabadniks believe their late Rebbe was the Messiah and is coming back from the dead, since he didn't do anything the Jewish Messiah is supposed to do before his death. Some Chabad Hasidim believe that the Rebbe is spiritually present with them, and may perform rituals for him. Chabad is completely, 110% Jewish. Absolutely nothing questionable about their beliefs. Not at all. Well, actually more than a few people consider it a cult, and it can be difficult to leave.[1][2][3][4]

Since 1951, Chabad began conducting large-scale outreach to unaffiliated Jews around the world, establishing synagogues and "Chabad centres" in countries around the world. These centres can be found in remote areas such as Noumea, New Caledonia,[7] where we can safely say there are very few Jews. However, these centres accommodate Jewish tourists.

Chabad's website is also one of the largest websites dealing in Jewish theology, beliefs and rituals, which creates an interesting scenario in which the main source of information on a diverse faith such as Judaism comes from one of the most fundamentalist sects of the faith.
